Miso caramel cookies

Using electric beaters, cream the butter and sugars in a large bowl until pale and fluffy (about 3 minutes). Add the miso, egg and syrup; beat for 6-7 minutes until fluffy. Stir in the flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and salt until just combined; fold in the toffees.

Put tbsp-sized scoops of the cookie dough (about 20) onto a parchment-lined board or tray. Chill for 30 minutes then, using your hands, roll each into a neat ball. Preheat the oven to 180°C, gas mark 4.

Transfer 5-6 balls of cookie dough to a parchment-lined baking tray (keep the remaining balls chilled for now), leaving space for them to spread; bake for 12-15 minutes until golden. Leave to cool for 2 minutes, then transfer the cookies onto a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat, cooking all of the remaining balls of cookie dough.
